Lyric Machine by The Royal They Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Put your bets down
You're invited to be part of the let-down
You wanna be let down
Let's get down and get done
Everything, everyone

[Verse 2]
Are you crazy?
Or are you just predictably lazy?
Would you pay me
To stay alive on a prayer?
Anyone, anywhere?

[Chorus]
Lyric machine, lyric machine
Can't see any color other than green
What do you mean
When you mean nothing of what you say?

[Verse 3]
With a broad stroke
You paint yourself into a column of grey smoke
Smoking, back-broken and drifting away
Cliche after cliche
[Verse 4]
You're a drowned shout
The type that needs a rope to be wrung out
You oughta be wrung out
As strung out as you are
You can't get very far

[Chorus]
Lyric machine, lyric machine
Can't see any color other than green
What do you mean
When you mean nothing of what you say?

[Bridge]
It's a fine line
Between achievement and a waste of a good time
Where in your mind
Do you find what you need
To be happy to be?
To be what you conceived?
To belong, to believe?

[Chorus]
Lyric machine, lyric machine
Can't see any color other than green
What do you mean
When you mean nothing of what you say?
